In today's episode, we're shedding light on a critical yet often overlooked aspect of cybersecurity - Indications of Compromise, also known as IOCs. These vital pieces of forensic data can be the canary in the coal mine, alerting us to potential network intrusions before they wreak havoc on our systems.
We'll discuss what IOCs are, why they are essential, and how you can use them proactively to enhance your cybersecurity strategy.
